Well, the red part is correct. hell is bright or light. In this use, "Bright Red"

Not a speaker; just know enough to be dangerous (and fix these cars). I work with a lot of Germans and Swiss at my paying job, so I can get stuff translated by native speakers, which is way better than babblefish...
  • Not a fan of K&N filters, since they don't filter very well. Just stick with a paper filter and change it often. Search "Fogging" the airbox and do that in stead.
  • As to the wheels, in the BMW catalogues they state diameter and offset for each style. If a style you see on a lowered car has the same size and offset as one you consider using, you are all set.
Enjoy it! These are great little cars.
